Love GWAR? Love Lamb of God? Love alcohol? Well Tuesday night is looking to be your night, my friend.


Love GWAR? Love Lamb of God? Love alcohol? Well Tuesday night is looking to be your night, my friend.

We just got this in from GWAR’s people; turns out John Campbell of Lamb of God will be hanging out, slinging suds, at the recently opened GWARbar Tuesday night, 1/20, from 10PM – 2 AM.

“Only his evil overlords, GWAR, could get this metal legend to put down his bass and do an honest night’s work for once,” writes Jon Freeman from the GWAR press camp.

“I woke up after a bender at GWAR’s HQ and because of my boyish good looks, I was given a choice between being fed to the World Maggot or serving to further GWAR’s culinary endeavors,” said Campbell in the same release. “Unfortunately, the maggot had indegestion (sic) so I have to work a shift at the GWARbar.”

Check out some more info about GWARBar from our story on the place opening earlier this month.
